Drawing from his own remarkable experience as a veteran classroom teacher (still in the classroom), Ron Berger gives us a vision of educational reform that transcends standards, curriculum, and instructional strategies.
But Berger\'s not just idealistic, he\'s realistic - he tells exactly how this can be done, from the blackboard to the blacktop to the school boardroom..
A master carpenter as well as a gifted teacher, Berger is guided by a craftsman\'s passion for quality, describing what\'s possible when teachers, students, and parents commit to nothing less than the best.
He argues for a paradigm shift - a schoolwide embrace of an Ethic of excellence.
